"[C]limate change is just a very, very expensive form of tax."

"I believe in climate change caused by human beings. What I'm skeptical about is the glib notion that it means the end of the world as we know it."

"The clock is no longer just ticking, it is banging."

"There is no long-term prosperity without action on climate change."

"The time for seeking global solutions [to climate change] is running out."

"The climate crisis is the existential threat. That's not hyperbole; it's a fact."

"[W]e are killing our planet."

Climate change is "above all, an existential crisis."

"Climate change is one of the greatest challenges mankind faces."

"If we don't take action, the collapse of our civilisations and the extinction of much of the natural world is on the horizon."

"Humanity is on thin ice — and that ice is melting fast."

"We haven't yet exceeded the bounds of viable human civilisation, but we're getting close."

Is Climate Change an Existential Threat?

Wildfires burning across Spain and France have forced more than 375,000 people from their homes. Nearly 260,000 have been evacuated in France, while over 100,000 have been displaced or confined in Spain's Madrid, Ávila and Toledo provinces alone.

Spain's Military Emergencies Unit declared all fire fronts in Madrid and Ávila contained on Sunday, though active sections remained. Lt. Col. Alfonso Arribas said crews hoped to spend "much more time directly attacking the fire" as aerial resources returned.
